The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop-Chapter 606 - 39: You Know Nothing of the Power of the Study Master
"What do you mean?" Gu Nanyu heard this and his face turned a bit displeased.
"I’m selfish, I’m timid and afraid of trouble. Do you remember He Lingxi? The real number one. When she was bullied, I didn’t offer a helping hand. I even secretly thought that when she couldn’t bear the bullying and transferred schools, I could become number one. All the scholarships would be mine. I don’t believe in love; I only believe in money. Maybe there’s passion and novelty at first. But what happens when those disappear?" Dai Shiqi said in a low voice, "Do you understand? I’m a person with a dark psyche. However, I disguise it very well."
"No, He Lingxi’s situation isn’t your fault. You didn’t lend a hand, but you didn’t harm her either. You didn’t have the ability to confront Wu Yihan. It’s not your fault. This is the choice that any normal person would make," Gu Nanyu frowned.
"So, I didn’t have the ability to save her, and I watched from the sidelines. That’s why I’ve always felt guilty, always felt guilty." Dai Shiqi smiled lightly, "So Gu Shao, you have the ability to save others, but you also chose to watch. Would you feel guilty?"
Gu Nanyu remained silent. He wouldn’t.
"So, this is the difference between you and me. Our values are different." Dai Shiqi gave a self-mocking smile, "I really hate myself for being like this. Dark, selfish, timid. If one day I become strong, become wealthy, I would definitely not stand idly by. But, it just happens that I encountered such a thing when I was most powerless. Gu Shao, we’re not suited for each other. We’re not people of the same world."
After Dai Shiqi finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the classroom.
Gu Nanyu stood there for a very long time.
Tianmiao and Xi Linghe were not in the classroom.
They were in the parking lot, in Tianmiao’s car.
In front of Xi Linghe was a mirror.
From Li Yingjun’s phone call to the conversation between Gu Nanyu and Dai Shiqi, Xi Linghe watched from start to finish.
"I remember now, actually, someone did help me. It’s just that I didn’t notice." Xi Linghe’s tears welled up in her eyes, "The only person who offered me help was Li Yingjun. Several times when Wu Yihan and the others blocked me in a corner, it was Li Yingjun who happened by and resolved it." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"When you were locked in the restroom, later a cleaner came to open the door. It was Li Yingjun who discovered it and called someone to open the door." Tianmiao said softly.
"He couldn’t face Wu Yihan directly, or Wu Yihan would only become more excessive. So he kept quietly helping you." Tianmiao continued.
Xi Linghe could no longer hold back her tears, which slowly fell, landing on her hand, on the mirror surface. It turned out that in this world, there were still people who cared about her, who wanted to protect her. She was not alone.
"During that PE class, Li Yingjun was the only one who didn’t laugh. And he angrily reprimanded the others. It was also then that he truly confronted Wu Yihan. But you couldn’t see it; you were carrying a backpack looking for death, then I saved you. You wanted to take your life in the park that day, Li Yingjun searched for you in the park until midnight."
"Actually, Dai Shiqi and your beliefs are the same. She also hates campus violence but is powerless. Thus, she turns to hate her powerless self."
"Wu Yihan will never appear in front of you again. The mistakes she and Lu Runjia, Lu Renyi made in the past will be repaid slowly in the rest of their lives. But before paying them back, interest must still be collected." Tianmiao wore a thin smile.
